Are you sure you have the power wire to the + terminal and the ground wire to the - terminal??
How are the speaker wires connected? What happens if you don't hook up the speaker wires to the amp? Do the fuses still blow then?

What size is the fuse on the power cable, [by the batt.?
What gauge is the power cable/kit?
What is the make/model of the amp?
Once you get the fuses try what B18C_EJ8 suggests, disconnect the speakers from the amp and try, [I would also unplug the RCAs] and see what happens, if the power and ground are connected properly on the amp and the RCAs and speakers are disconnected and the fuse still blows, the problem is in the amp, more then likely blown outputs.
